12.10 Transmit Cell Synchronization Logic
The transmit cell synchronization logic copies cell data from the transmit cell
FIFO buffer to the transmit ATM UTOPIA interface while performing the
following functions:
to the transmit ATM UTOPIA interface unit, with cell delineation pulses at the
starting byte of every cell. Only complete 53-byte cells are supplied to the ATM
UTOPIA interface. If the transmit cell FIFO buffer is empty, the transmit cell
synchronization logic indicates that no more data can be transferred to the framer.
• Reads 32-bit words from the transmit cell FIFO buffer and converts them
• Maintains a sequence counter that delineates the various components of
• Inserts a blank (all-0) HEC byte, used as a placeholder, into the outgoing
• Generates appropriate cell delineation pulses to the transmit ATM
• If the ATM physical transmit interface runs out of cells to transmit, the
The transmit cell synchronization logic supplies a continuous stream of octets

the first byte derived from that word (big-endian format).
